Want to share? Mine is nonmusicmom or not musical mom. Hubby is a pro trumpet player and is at a Brass Band compatition right now. My son plays trombone and y daughter plays flute, piano, picialo and had a beautiful alto singing voice. She was also blessed with perfect pitch. Both of my parents were singers of gospel music. I could sing also before they put in my trac, but now I am Nonmusicmom. How about you?

I thought you must make bears for your grandchildren. Butyour story is much better. There are few things better than grandchildren. Agreed?

Well mine is just my first name and the year I was born. Very boring. I don't have a nickname. Well sometimes my soon to be hubby calls me Inga. After 21 years of being together and 4 kids ranging in ages just turned 20(daughter) eleven days ago, almost 15 yr old (son), 11 yr old(son) and a almost 7 yr old(daughter) we are getting married in 3 weeks time. I have made my outfit, my hubby's vest and tie, i am still to make my oldest daughters bridesmaid dress. I have made the youngest daughters flower girl dress, and both the sons vests and ties. So after I have taken 3 of the kids to school I will have to get a move on and start the last dress. It's been quite hectic these last few weeks to say the least.

This is all making interesting reading. Here goes - Asterix is one of my cats and I like sewing. It is a name I have used before. I chose Asterix as Blossom or Slingsby the other two sounded more of a mouthful

I hope you are feeling much better! My screen name is what my Egyptian-born husband and his family in Cairo call me. It's a term of endearment that I've been told translates to something like honey and cream. I thought that was a nice nickname so I use it online some.

Well, I got mine from my mother. She was from England. My dad was in the U.S. Army Air Corp during WWII and stationed in her home town of Norwich. They met, fell in love and married over there. He brought her back to Indiana with him after the war was over. We drank tea from the time we could drink from a cup. Tea solves anything. It can soothe your frazzled nerves, perfect to drink with someone you love, perfect with any food, etc. She spoiled us kids so much. She would wake us up in the morning with a cup of tea and crackers in bed before we got up to get ready for school. Wow! What I wouldn't give give to have that one more time. I really miss my Mom. Anyway, we are a big tea drinking family and I loved the name as soon as I thought of it. BTW, I absolutely love this website and I have to check it out several times a day to see what's going on.

Right after we retired,(& I thought I would have lots of time to sew then) I fell & crushed my foot. The way the cast was put on I couldn't even sit at the sewing machine(very depressed)My husband brought home a german shepherd puppy, who crawled on my lap & stayed there(it seemed like) until she would no longer fit(100 lbs.) She was like an angel to me(how could you be depressed) That's how she got her name. When my husband started using the comp & needed a password, my daughter suggested Angelmakes3.(IT just stuck for everything) She went into a convultion 2 yrs. ago & died. We just acquirued a white german sheperd,(could not get another one that looked like Angel) but we still use Angelmakes3.

Mine is dead easy. It is my last name - I always sign my christian name at the end of my email - Chris. So there you are I am Chris Pennifold.

I only play recorder! I lead the singing in my church every Sunday and have been singing since I was a little girl. Was in a Christian Band called "Free Spirit" for the Decade of Evangelism between 1990 and 2000 and have been in church choirs all my life and I just love lifting my voice to the Lord. As I have gotten older my voice is now more a metzo soprano - used to sing much higher when I was younger! I love all sorts of music and when I am home have CD's playing all day. I never watch TV throughout the day and only sometimes at night. I'm usually busy doing other things e.g. sewing, patchwork, machine embroidery, babysitting the "ankle biters" or the "oldies" (My mum and dad hehehehe!) or at work.

Love Chris - P.S. thanks for the question.
